So I have this thing about written journals. Something about holding a book filled entirely with my words. My handwriting. I love it. I’ve been keeping journals since 1995, when I received my first one (the red one above) as a gift from a family friend.

But when I started journaling online in 2001, I slacked a lot. Sometimes I posted things online and also wrote them down in my journal while other times I wrote something down that I was too scared to put up for the world to see. Until I just stopped writing them down all together, leaving a word document on my computer for the things I didn’t post online. Well, I’ve been working on a project, for a long time now, actually (slowly pacing myself is what I say) and I’m proud to say that I’m almost caught up. I’ve been transcribing everything on chasingtwilight (and my trusty word document) into a written journal and I’m currently resting on August 28th. WOOHOO! I just thought I’d share my excitement with you.
